From what I've seen the progression curve seems to be rewarding and I like idea of all my things being something I worked hard to acquire.
Can't wait to get my hands on the game!

pekt Your extras do sound like the ideal game! I did see in a review video that the devs only consider the game 10% complete so I'm very curious what will be added down the road.Your extras do sound like the ideal game!

pekt Thank you for the recommendation! I remember seeing that a long while ago and didn't know it was still around. I'll bookmark that and see if I can find some time to play around with it.Thank you for the recommendation! I remember seeing that a long while ago and didn't know it was still around.

I stopped playing a while ago after I found the newer versions of Minecraft were adding things that just didn't click for me and I enjoyed the older mechanics better. My brother took his account back to play with his kids now that they're old enough so I'd need to buy a new copy if I want to play it and try out those old versions again.
I agree with the sense of wonder and have been trying not to watch any actual lets plays of it so I'll come into the game somewhat fresh if I do eventually pick up a copy.

Being a Dad with young kids and currently no job my gaming budget is nonexistent and I would likely wait until Christmas to get a copy for myself.
I was curious if anyone plays this game and what your thoughts/opinions are.

I got 4 on release and that with the dumbed down dialogue and some other issues led me to not finish the game or even get that far into it. I feel like this far along most of the issues have been patched/modded out and it would be worth playing once I can find some time.

I feel like if it was billed as a separate Mulan adaptation and not a recreation of the Disney animated movie I'd have been more open to it and wouldn't have judged it the way I did.

I just couldn't believe they thought the movie was going to be a success.
Mulan was my wife's favorite Disney movie growing up and was incredibly popular in the state she grew up in (she's ethnically Chinese in the most ethnically Chinese state in her country). She said it felt like they tried to capitalize on the nostalgia but didn't try to capture anything that made the movie special.

It looks incredibly fun and honestly I'm just not up to keeping up with people who play all the time or have the time to get my raid ruined by a hacker.
I'll be curious when I finally get around to upgrading/rebuilding if this game will still be actively played.

It's fun but I don't have the time to keep up with the meta or make meaningful progress.
I have heard there's a mod that allows you play single player and doesn't wipe your progress. Essentially turning the game into PvE. My friends who are still interested in the game told me it's the only way they play nowadays.
Sad to see this happen to the game though. I enjoyed my time and definitely got my money's worth. I'll still watch an occasional video of it and that's enough to scratch the itch for me.
I'd like to pick up Minecraft again specifically to play beta 1.7.3, I enjoyed the pre hunger system game a lot. Though I'll probably play some newer versions as well. I've watched a few golden age Minecraft videos and some of the mods like Better Than Adventure look interesting.
I hope you enjoy Vintage Story! I'm excited to get my hands on it when I can afford to.
